The Hakata Food Hall, opening March 28, 2025, on the third floor of Fukuoka Airport’s international terminal, will feature eight specialty eateries, providing travelers with a curated sampling of Fukuoka’s renowned culinary offerings. Among the highlights are Kamakiri Udon, known for its homemade noodles made from Itoshima-grown wheat; Takenoya, offering eel dishes and its famous “guruguru” grilled chicken skin skewers; and Umino Shokudo, serving seafood rice bowls made with fresh fish from Nagahama Market. Additional options include authentic tonkatsu at Ando, bubble-style tonkotsu ramen at Ko-chan Ramen, and hearty motsunabe (offal hot pot) from Rakutenchi. The food hall, designed to evoke the bustling atmosphere of a traditional yatai street, aims to immerse visitors in Fukuoka’s vibrant food culture. The interior blends modern amenities with nostalgic charm, creating a lively yet comfortable dining space. In addition to the Hakata Food Hall, the pre-security area will feature Royal Cafeteria Miyabi, a multi-cuisine dining option for travelers and their families. Source: Fukuoka Airport
